SHPE | UIUC has had a long and successful tradition of inviting high school students to campus to learn more about Engineering at Illinois. Our student-run programs involve a team of volunteers and months of planning to make these events special for aspiring college students. From our popular High School Visitation programs each semester to our ongoing Outreach events, there are plenty of opportunities to learn about how YOU can be tomorrow's engineer.
The UIUC Chapter of the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers is bringing back our annual Fall High School Visitation program for Hispanic and Latinx students interested in learning more about UIUC and SHPE. The weekend will include informational sessions, tours, workshops, community-building activities, and meet & greets with various campus organizations and staff.
For this event, HSV students can be driven by trained SHPE members in a UIUC-rented van from the Chicagoland area or dropped off directly on campus. Lunch, dinner, and transportation will be provided free of cost. Here is more detailed information about transportation times and locations:
Guardians who would like to drop off and pick up their students can drop them off at 1010 W Illinois St, Urbana, IL 61801 (Illinois Street Residence Halls) Rooms 94AB at 9:00am and pick them up at 701 S Gregory St H, Urbana, IL 61801 (Rosati's Pizza) at 7:30pm.
Spring HSV will be restricted to high school seniors who have been accepted into the College of Engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
